S5 Active - Rooting! All solutions are for S5 build - AT&T

I am trying to root my s5 active with the latest active software release. It is not the same as all the solutions I have found that are for the S5. Towel does not work, is there a similar solution?

Please Help!!!

You have to flash the kernel from the previous version then use towel root. Then flash back to the current kernel

Confirmed: This does work...

TowelRoot Samsung Galaxy S4/S5 and Note 3 on Android 4.4.2 NF or Later - W0lfDroid

NOTE: Be sure to download the correct version of the 2 different files. For example, I was downloading the ones for the S5 and not the S5 Active. But it does work!
